After missing the launch of iOS 17, Apple finally introduced the Journal app to iPhones with iOS 17.2 last December. It was pitched as a way to “help users reflect and practice gratitude through journaling” to help “improve wellbeing,” but nine months later, it remains a somewhat basic proposition compared to long-standing alternatives available on the App Store.
Apple has already announced some changes coming to the Journal app with iOS 18, but it seems that the company is also assessing how it might introduce its much-hyped Apple Intelligence into the app.
